Assembly
5.4 Commissioning
Only trained specialist staff may perform initial
commissioning since initial commissioning of the
pedelec requires special tools and specialist
knowledge.
Experience has shown that a pedelec which has
not yet been sold is automatically handed to
customers as soon as it appears ready to ride.
For this reason, every pedelec must be
prepared, so it is fully ready for use
immediately after being assembled.
The assembly report (see Section 11.2
)
describes all safety-relevant inspections, tests
and maintenance tasks for the bicycle in a
separate list. All assembly work must be
completed to ensure the pedelec is ready to
ride.
Complete an assembly report for quality
assurance purposes.
5.4.1 Checking the stem and handlebars
5.4.1.1 Checking the connections
1 Stand in front of the pedelec to check whether
the handlebars, stem and fork steerer are
firmly attached to one another. Clamp the front
wheel between your legs. Grasp the handlebar
grips.
2 Try to twist the handlebars towards the front
wheel.
The stem must not move or twist.
5.4.1.2 Firm hold
1 Place your entire body weight on the
handlebars with the quick release lever closed
to check that the stem is firmly in place.
The handlebars shaft must not move
downwards in the fork steerer.
2 If the handlebars shaft should move in the fork
steerer, increase the quick release lever
tensioning. To do so, turn the knurled nut
slightly in a clockwise direction with the quick
release lever open.
3 Close the lever and check the stem is firmly in
position.
5.4.1.3 Checking the headset backlash
1 To check the handlebar headset backlash,
close the quick release lever on the stem.
2 Place the fingers of one hand on the upper
headset cup. Pull the front wheel brake with the
other hand and try to push the pedelec
backwards and forwards.
3 The headset cup halves must not move
towards one another while you are doing this.
Note that there may be noticeable backlash
due to worn-out bearing bushes or brake lining
backlash in suspension forks and disc brakes.
4 If there is headset backlash in the steering
headset, you must adjust it as soon as
possible; otherwise, the headset will become
damaged. You must make the adjustment as
described in the stem manual.
5.5 Pedelec sale
Complete Pedelec pass on the operating
instructions envelope.
Note down the battery key manufacturer and
its number.
Adjust the pedelec to the rider; see Section 6.5
.
Set the stand and shifter.
Instruct the operator or rider on how to use all
the pedelec's functions.
Burns from hot drive
The drive cooler can become extremely hot
during use. Touching it may cause burns.
Leave the drive unit to cool before assembly.
